I just finished listening to
Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern. The audio book was performed by the incomparable
Jim Dale, which was treat in and of itself!
NPR did a nice story on
Night Circus and author Erin Morgenstern that you might be interested in titled
"Night Circus" Comes to Town with Magic, Mystery.
Summary from Amazon (best book of September):
 |
| Jim Dale |
Erin Morgenstern’s dark, enchanting debut takes us to the black and white tents of
Le Cirque des Reves,
a circus that arrives without warning, simply appearing when yesterday
it was not there. Young Celia and Marco have been cast into a rivalry at
The Night Circus,
one arranged long ago by powers they do not fully understand. Over
time, their lives become more intricately enmeshed in a dance of love,
joy, deceit, heartbreak, and magic. Author Morgenstern knows her world
inside and out, and she guides the reader with a confident hand. The
setting and tone are never less than mesmerizing. The characters are
well-realized and memorable. But it is the Night Circus itself that
might be the most memorable of all.
